Gamification kind of hints at a system like a visa/master card.. spend x $.. you get points towards a free vacation to hawaii or a snowboard. In games case.. for example you get free dreamy gear. Like your account has a life long tiered session...

Then why would I purchase at the moment?

So why would anyone purchase any AP at all right now? You removed another incentive for people to purchase, and in the game I'm currently playing: Call of Gods, there is no events as an incentive either.

I've been purchasing regularly since I joined, and now you cancelled a program without having a replacement in place? That was incredibly bad business sense.

In all fairness, the current rewards program being trashed with no replacement in effect yet, it would make sense that all AP purchases made during this limbo period(no rewards) be made retro-active to receive the new benefits when they are implemented. Just my 2 cents.

I hope so. I just did scrape together a few pennies to buy a few AP and this was before I saw this. It was only a couple days ago. I thought for sure I'd be getting reward points and then see this... so sad.

In my opinion, things should be discussed, implemented THEN announced. Not have this blank period with no rewards. I was wondering why no reward points showed up after my purchase.

I sure hope so too. I know the "rewards bonus" is just that, a bonus, but we have all gotten kinda use to this system. I really don't mind change as long as it's for the better or at least equal to the previous. I guess we just have to hope that they have a good plan and trust that they have good intentions. I bet we end up ok. *fingers crossed*

I quit buying AP & stopped playing Megaten because of how cheep Aeria has become with their bonus AP that they would give you. It used to be pretty good, but they started lowering bonus AP to the point that it really sucks. Now they are doing this. Its to bad but maybe this will work out, but don't hold your breath.
